Cantilever is a steel racking system where the load is supported on steel arms. The loads are held in place by the arm which transfers the load weight to the supporting upright beam / base. Cantilever racking is designed to handle a wide variety of products providing unrestricted front access for long and irregular shaped products such as bar stock, piping, plywood and drywall.

Products rest on flat or tapered arms for easy loading. The columns act as backstops and flue space for sprinklers and water penetration. Lift truck forks have easy entry for un-palletized loads. Base legs provide stability and keep the products off the floor. All posts are punched to accept arms on both sides. Cantilever arms make up the actual levels used for product storage. The arms are typically adjusted on the upright creating shelf levels, enabling you to customize the height required. Arms can be straight or inclined to hold goods that may roll off. Some arms come with a lip edge that attaches at the front end of the arm to prevent loads from slipping off the front of the rack, these edges can be welded on or peg style to be removed for loading / unloading. Cantilever racking is available in both single side and two-sided.
